Awesome Kong Says She’ll ‘Always Be Open’ to TNA Return

Kia Stevens, known to wrestling fans as Awesome Kong, holds a special place in her heart for TNA Wrestling.

Over her storied career, Stevens has made a significant impact on the promotion, capturing the Knockouts Championship twice and holding the Knockouts Tag Team titles. Her contributions to TNA were immortalized in 2021 when she was inducted into the IMPACT/TNA Hall of Fame.

Stevens made a surprise return to the ring in September 2023 for IMPACT’s milestone 1000th episode. During a recent appearance on Victoire, she opened up about her bond with the promotion, expressing how TNA has always felt like family to her.

“TNA, for me, it’s like family. When you’re there, you’re family. So, always will come back to TNA or do something for TNA because I came into my own at TNA,” she shared.
